Cyp2b-null male mice are susceptible to high-fat diet-induced obesity due to changes in PUFA metabolism and response to hepatic lipids as measured by RNAseq

ABSTRACT: To investigate the role of CYP2B in lipid metabolism, a Cyp2b triple knockout mouse lacking Cyp2b9, Cyp2b10, and Cyp2b13 was developed using CRISPER/Cas9. Wildtype (WT) and Cyp2b-null mice were fed a normal diet (ND) or a 60% high-fat diet (HFD) for 10 weeks. RNA was extracted from the livers of male and female mice from all treatment groups and used for RNA seqencing. RNAseq data demonstrated that hepatic gene expression in ND-fed Cyp2b-null male mice is similar to HFD-fed WT mice, indicating that Cyp2b-null male mice are reacting as if they are receiving a HFD even if they are not. Gene ontology and KEGG pathways show perturbations in lipid metabolism pathways, including PUFA metabolism, fatty acid elongation, and glycerophospholipid metabolism.

Project description:Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) is a widespread environmental pollutant with a long half-life and clearly negative outcomes on metabolic diseases such as fatty liver and diabetes. Male and female Cyp2b-null and humanized CYP2B6-transgenic (hCYP2B6-Tg) mice were treated with 0, 1, or 10 mg/kg/day PFOS for 21 days, and surprisingly it was found that PFOS was retained at greater concentrations in the serum and liver of hCYP2B6-Tg mice than Cyp2b-null mice with greater differences in the females. Thus, Cyp2b-null and hCYP2B6-Tg mice provide new models for investigating individual mechanisms for PFOS bioaccumulation and toxicity. Overt toxicity was greater in hCYP2B6-Tg mice (especially females) as measured by mortality; however, steato-sis occurred more readily in Cyp2b-null mice despite the lower PFOS liver concentrations. Tar-geted lipidomics and transcriptomics from PFOS treated Cyp2b-null and hCYP2B6-Tg mouse livers were performed and compared to PFOS retention and serum markers of toxicity by PCA. Several oxylipins, including prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and docosahexaenoic acid metabo-lites are associated or inversely associated with PFOS toxicity. Both lipidomics and tran-scriptomics indicate PFOS toxicity is associated with PPAR activity in all models. GO terms as-sociated with reduced steatosis were sexually dimorphic with lipid metabolism and transport increased in females and circadian rhythm associated genes increased in males. However, we can rule out that steatosis was initially protective from PFOS toxicity. Moreover, several transporters are associated with increased retention probably due to increased uptake. The strongest associa-tions are the organic anion transport proteins (Oatp1a4-6) genes and a long-chain fatty acid transport protein (fatp1), enriched in female hCYP2B6-Tg mice. PFOS uptake was also reduced in cultured murine hepatocytes by OATP inhibitors. The role of OATP1A6 and FATP1 in PFOS transport has not been tested. In summary, Cyp2b-null and hCYP2B6-Tg mice provided unique models for estimating the importance of novel mechanisms in PFOS retention and toxicity.
